Hi All,
I bought these from a respectable website, see item description below,

[b]Schwalbe Racing Ralph Wired Tyre
From £9.99
58% off £23.99
free UK delivery

The optimal competition tyre. Still hungry for success, it has a new tread design and Triple Nano Compound. Cuts like a knife through the toughest terrain. More aggressive too: Holds a tight line in curves with its new sharks-tooth U-Blocks.

Features:
•ETRTO: 35-622
•Size: 700x35c
•Compound: Triple
•Tread: HS 391
•Bar: 3.5/6.0
•Weight: 340
•EPI: 67

Buying options
Schwalbe Racing Ralph Wired Tyre

Schwalbe Racing Ralph Wired Tyre Size : 26in Colour : Black Width : 2.25in

The size in the description was 700c and obviously wrong. I did receive 26 x 2.25 What I did receive was Schwalbe Racing Ralph Sport Line, are they triple nano compound? It doesnt say so on the tyre like the other triple nano ralphs I have????
thanks

Not looking to cause trouble with the seller, no witch hunts here! 😆

Never seen or heard of 'Sport Line' thats all.

Hi

No they aren't triple nano. They may be ORC or maybe not even that. I didn't even know Schwalbe made wire bead tyres...
